Description

Make your best shots even better with RAW Power™. RAW Power unlocks the power of Apple's RAW engine with simple, easy-to-use controls. Use it as an editing extension inside Apple Photos, or as a standalone, non-destructive RAW photo editor.

If you loved Aperture's advanced RAW processing adjustments, you'll feel right at home with RAW Power. Using adjustments like Boost, previously only available in Aperture, you can improve your images in ways that simply can't be done in any other application. RAW Power takes advantage of RAW processing improvements in macOS Sierra.

Great piece of software

Really good piece of software. Great control over all aspects that you would want and relatively intuitive to use. Really found nothing missing in terms of adjusting the photo. A slight niggle is having edited and saved a photo, it would be good to take it back to the folder from which it came so you could edit the next one. But Hey! I’m really struggling to find anythong wrong!

Excellent value.

This is an excellent piece of kit. First rate results can be achieved with this app. Fantastic value . A must have for photo editing. This app really must be expanded to incorporate things like cloning, spot removal and dare I say it…layers.I love the end results with this editor.

Wonderful piece of software. Simple and affordable, without all the bells and whistles of other more expensive image editors out there.
